Saddle Skedaddle Spring Series 2 - Caesar's Camp Results
by Paul Howard, 02 Mar 14. Results [ 1» ]
If there was ever a vote for best XC venue, would Caesar's Camp win it by a hilly country mile? Such a mix of terrain, and climbs that really made you work for your payback of the final Rollercoaster descent. Ace fun. The very good news, we'll all be back here again on the 23rd March for round 3 and what we've called Hungry Hill...

Saddle Skedaddle Spring Series 1 - Crowthorne Results and Photographs
by Paul Howard, 09 Feb 14. Results [ 1» ] Photos [ 1» ]
A whole week of hard work preparing the Crowthorne trails paid off to make the most of the forest that wasn't underwater. Many riders agreed what a superb course it was with just a few short sloppy sections of mud to squelch through. The watersplash at the bottom of the start straight hill was quite entertaining as it appeared to deepen during the day, cleaned the bikes though! Full results are available via the link above and later in the week the first Series Points will be awarded. Don't forget at each round before the start of selected categories all riders have the chance of winning vouchers from our local bike shop sponsors. So keep your ears open if your number is picked. We are grateful as ever to Saddle Skedaddle for continuing their title sponsorship.
Round 2 is on the 2nd March at Caeser's Camp near Aldershot more regularly used for the Brass Monkeys Enduros, so you can look forward to thrashing round a shorter fun course with excellent descents. See you there.
